ATLANTA (AP) --Rion Brown came off the bench to score a career-high 22 points, and Miami's overall size gave
Georgia Tech fits Saturday as the
Hurricanes whipped the
Yellow Jackets 62-49 in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both teams.

Georgia Tech (10-3) had won six straight against a soft schedule in which the Yellow Jackets never faced height like the Hurricanes (10-3) offered.

The Jackets were outscored 26-19 in the paint while losing for the first time in nine games in their new arena, McCamish Pavilion.
